Extremely well related. Love the picture you paint.
My mom was Polish/Ukrainian, so the foods you describe are very familiar to me. I even prepare many of then.
Voted.

Thanks, Lazarus, for the kind words. This story seems to have struck a respondent chord with a lot of people on this website, which is really exciting for me.

Told both beautifully and realistically, this is one of the best stories I've read in this competition. You better believe you got my vote! :D

Thanks for the thumbs up. I've traveled back and forth to Russia several times to adopt my children and work in home care with elderly Russian clients who live in subsidized housing. That, of course, is where the 'seed' for this story came from. But, anyway, thanks for the kind words!!!

Your support is greatly appreciated and I'm delighted that you enjoyed the story. I work in health care and some of the material was autobiographical.
